She is coming back to it after about 10 years and they seem a bit basic to her.
Could anyone recommend a good deck she could progress to? She would like pretty artwork but with clear imagery. Thanks in advance!

I love the images in the Druidcraft Tarot, they are beautiful and definitely compliment the OBODs courses, if she's taking them. My one reservation in a lot of tarot decks is the size of the cards. I only have small hands and therefore can't shuffle very well, that's why I'm looking forward to (hopefully) receiving OBOD member and Anglesey Druid Order Heads Kristoffer Hughes 'The Celtic Tarot' based on the characters in the Mabinogi and welsh myths....the cars are hand size apparently, so wha\t's not to like!

I love the Robin Wood Tarot. It's based on Raider-Waite, but the artist has her own interpretations. I'd strongly recommend to also buy the guide book where she explains why she painted this and that (she goes a lot into the symbolism and colors).

I struggle with the size of the Druidcraft deck too, even though I adore the imagery.

My favorite deck is the Mythic tarot. Very similar to Rider-Waite in some respects, but the images speak to me more. I dislike the reprint, the images fall flat. But the original is beautiful and very intuitive.
